My Chili Recipe FINALLY!
With hat in hand, I offer my sincerest apologies to those of you who have asked for my Chili recipe and I have neglected to send it to you. I FINALLY posted the recipe on my cooking blog, Wow Chow Cooking. (My daughter made up that name for the cooking blog, isn’t it catchy?!). Sorry [...]

I am an American. Worse, I am a Northeasterner American. Which means that I CANNOT COOK TASTY RICE. The rice I cook tastes DISGUSTING. I admit it! I have finally faced reality!

:) I’m a married mom of four teenage children. We live in Upstate New York. We bought an old 1855 home and acre property, over 10 years ago. We've been in the slow, agonizing process of living in the home while (trying) to renovate it. When I'm not renovating, I'm a freelance writer and blogger. You can check out my other blogs here.
We've learned to dig a French drain, plant huge flower and vegetable gardens, wire a circuit panel, install furnace ducting, understand the enigmatic complexities of the plumbing system, and more. It's been *quite* the adventure.
You can read more about us here, read up on the history of the home, and read about what we've renovated so far. Thanks for visiting!
